What age do people start feeling lonely?? Mostly what i have understood from my psychological study is that a lot of older people feel much lonely than young people because most of them are left out alone after their kids move out. Is my perception right??

one feels lonely when you don't have a purpose in life. companionship in any form is not promised. one has to be fulfilled within. loneliness is a state of mind. usually old people tend to give up doing things they liked to do. this causes boredom which leads to loneliness.

Hello, being brave is important, but also remember you don't have to be too hard on yourself. It's okay to ask for help whenever required. It is also a sign of bravery.
You should always challenge yourself about the any situation that yes you can do this by any way. Way out the things in a detailed manner

My parents are looking for matches for me and I am ok with it. however I think a dating period is necessary to understand each other. How long should this period be?
It depends on your flow and compatibility in a relationship. There's no fixed time but a few months probably mught be good to get used to each other's compatibility
Anonymous-21d
I really doubt they'll agree to wait for long so maybe 7-8 months is reasonable

So sad I went for a movie with my son and when I came home I had my husband not eating food and calling me names. Just because I went out for a movie with my son . Does it happen with u - how do u deal with it
Anonymous1d
It's okay to go and enjoy with your children especially when your partner doesn't have time. You don't have to restrict yourself just because your partner doesn't have time for you!

He might also wanted to go with you both and must be calling you names out of jealousy as he missed all the fun with his family 🥰

Hi girls, I am Rachael from USA. As you all know Mother's Day is around the corner. I wanted to gift something special to my mom, something that is different and she likes it. What is the best mother's day gift one can get for under $50?

Hey Rachael! How about a personalized photo album or a spa gift set? Both are thoughtful and can be found within your budget.👍

What age is the best to move in with your partner? Is 19 okay? I really wanna experience it-
If you are financially independent and can afford to live with him, then you can certainly move in!

Sarah, a 42-year-old marketing executive, recently divorced with two teenage kids, has been dating Tom, a 45-year-old software engineer who is also divorced, for eight months. Tom has asked Sarah to move in with him, and she is uncertain about the timing and implications of such a big step. How long should you date before moving in together in your 40s? Any advice?
In 40s, there's a lot of things that are sorted with us generally, profession, money, lifestyles..so it may get rigid with each other's space compatibility. Try to communicate with each other your needs and wants and compatibility along with lifestyle factors.

My school classmates forced me to send my pictures on our group chat as we had not seen each other since long, but when I did post them, they started telling me how much I have changed and how much weight I have gained. This has made me feel terrible about myself but I don’t want it to effect me. What do I do??
Ofcourse you must have gained weight since you met them last,and I am assuming it was many years back. If you were conscious about yourself, you would not have send the pics, the fact is rhat you are not liking their opinions about yourself. Have that clarity, and don't let others opinions affect you negatively....be confident as what you are.
Anonymous-6d
don't be afraid of judgements or criticism from others but be mindful that you don't do the same to yourself... be your best friend 😍❤️ Appreciate yourself often . shower yourself with unconditional love then what others say won't have an negative effect on you...and you have your power back
